With the help of the super brain potion and the experience before the time travel, if Xia Xu fails the driving test again, he can kill himself with a piece of tofu.
He took the test and got his license on the same day, and also completed all the procedures at once. The next morning, Xia Xu arrived at the Xinghai Industrial headquarters to pick up his new car.
"Boss, you said you would find someone to replace me, why do I have to do more work?"
As soon as I arrived downstairs of the office building of Xinghai Industry, Zhou Xiaodong was already waiting there, but instead of greeting me, he complained quietly.
He had persuaded Xia Xu to buy the company because he didn't want to deal with all these messy things. He wanted to sell the company and make some money to set up a research institute or something.
Later, Xia Xu proposed the condition that he could stay and participate in the research and development. In addition, he was indeed reluctant to leave his old brothers, so he agreed to stay.
He thought that if he didn't become a boss, he wouldn't have to worry about all those messy things, he wouldn't have to owe a large sum of money as soon as he opened his eyes every day, and he wouldn't have to worry about profits and losses and promotion and marketing.
Who would have thought that the new boss he found was even more deceptive than himself. When he was the boss, although he was reluctant, he still devoted his energy to take care of things.
This new boss, on the other hand, has been a hands-off boss from the beginning to the end, and has been fooling people by saying that he would find someone to replace him right away, but after such a long time, there is no sign of even a single person.
Moreover, the entire Xinghai Industry is now expanding exponentially. It is a completely different scale compared to the scale of Huichuang Hi-Tech alone. This not only makes him feel stressed and annoyed, but it is also somewhat beyond the scope of his management ability.
"Looking, looking, looking. I'm already looking. Lao Zhou, please understand that the group is being watched by many people right now. It's really hard for me to find a suitable and trustworthy person in a short period of time."
Xia Xu was also very troubled as Zhou Xiaodong urged him to do something as soon as he arrived.
Damn, why are all the people I meet so weird
With Jiang Hai in front and Zhou Xiaodong behind, Jiang Hai is relatively better. Although he also has a technician's personality, he still has a basic desire for power. At least he is not opposed to managing the company itself.
But Zhou Xiaodong is weird. He has a complete otaku personality and doesn't want to take care of anything. The position of general manager of Xinghai Industry, which others are fighting for, has become a hot potato to him.
But Xia Xu really couldn't find a suitable person for the time being. After all, this was not a small position, but the general manager of the company, and it was Xinghai Industry, the technology company that he attached the most importance to.
The general manager is basically the head of a company and there is no room for promotion. If someone with mediocre ability is temporarily promoted, let alone whether he is trustworthy, the subsequent job transfer alone will be a problem.
What if you find a more suitable candidate? You can't demote someone for no reason, right
But not everyone has the same personality as Zhou Xiaodong. This approach will not convince the public and may even cause resentment among people. If some intelligence information obtained during the tenure is leaked casually, there will be endless troubles.
Therefore, instead of finding someone with average ability to take over now, it is better to let Zhou Xiaodong and Jiang Hai take over this position first, even if they are just nominal mascots. At most, we can recruit more middle-level managers.
"Hurry up, take me to see my new car. I'm going to go for a ride."
Without giving Zhou Xiaodong a chance to continue speaking, Xia Xu urged.
"All right."
Zhou Xiaodong reluctantly stood up and led the way, turning to a factory near the Xinghai Industrial Office Building.
The office building of Xinghai Industry is the former one of Huichuang Hi-Tech, located in a university town in the suburbs. In addition to several vocational high schools and universities, there are also some scattered factories nearby.
Now Xia Xu and his team went to one of the small car factories, which originally belonged to a certain BYD company, but was abandoned due to some problems and was then sold to Xinghai Industry, which was in the process of expansion.
"Boss, this is our factory's chief engineer Duan Liang. Engineer Duan, this is our big boss..."
After entering the factory, Zhou Xiaodong also introduced the factory's situation and some of the persons in charge to Xia Xu.
It’s just that these people basically only have one or two-star talents, which makes them outstanding among ordinary people, but for Xia Xu, they are a little disappointing.
Without going into details about the human relationships, Xia Xu finally saw the new car he had reserved in an independent warehouse.
It has a typical streamlined appearance of a supercar, with a pure black shell with a matte texture, and two to three finger-wide, spider-web-like white stripes crisscrossing across it, giving it a sense of déjà vu of the Venom spider suit in the Spider-Man movie.
In fact, Xia Xu did refer to Venom in the Spider-Man movie on Earth for this appearance, but he only briefly mentioned the color concept and feeling. The main work was naturally left to professional appearance designers and artists to complete.
And now it seems that, at least in terms of appearance, Zhou Xiaodong and his team have submitted a perfect answer.
The texture of metal and matte, the interweaving of pure black and pure white, the overall streamlined shape and the perfect ultimate beauty of each arc, the superposition of the three makes the entire car body look cool and sci-fi, full of visual impact.
"How about it, boss? It's pretty cool, isn't it? To be honest, I want to apply to buy one for my collection. All the parts are of top configuration, the maximum speed can reach 440 km/h, and the whole body is bulletproof and supports brain wave control..."
Zhou Xiaodong introduced it with an excited and envious look.
No man can resist the excitement in front of a supercar or a cool metal vehicle, especially the "Venom" in front of him.
"Where's the ejection capsule?"
Xia Xu was also very satisfied with this, but not to the point of losing his composure.
After all, who knows how much black technology is hidden on the Aquamarine Planet. Supercars are nothing compared to mechas, which are the romance of men.
In fact, if he really wanted to, he could ask Xinghai Industry to produce it now, but it has little practical value due to limitations in energy and control.
"Boss, of course I won't forget what you personally told me. There are retractable ejection pods at the rear and both sides of the vehicle, with multiple interactive modes of release, which can accommodate twelve spider-shaped predators."
When Zhou Xiaodong heard Xia Xu asking about the key points, he also became serious.
This Venom 'tank' is not actually equipped with any high-end black technology. Apart from the brain control technology that adds an additional control method, the rest are purchased and customized ready-made accessories.
So in general, this is a top-level supercar with high enough configuration, customized appearance and certain bulletproof function. The only difference lies in the ejection compartment designed inside the car body.
Xia Xu built this car mainly for transportation purposes and to facilitate carrying of spider predators or other mind-controlled devices, so he specially designed a storage and ejection cabin.
The cabin has two parts, both located at the rear of the vehicle. One is for storage and ejection directly from the rear of the vehicle, which can accommodate approximately six spider-like predators.
The other is on both sides near the rear of the car. A telescopic slot can pop out on each side, and objects can be stored and placed in the slot. The space on each side is roughly the volume of three spider-like predators.
This thing is not something very high-tech. It is mainly used for the rapid storage and deployment of brain-controlled devices. In fact, many car companies have similar concept cars or even real cars.
For example, a new car from a certain company also has the design of a side retractable cabin, but what is more bizarre is that they equipped the cabin with a stove and kitchen utensils, under the pretext of making it convenient for camping.
"Well done, everyone will get a bonus later."
After getting in the car and testing it briefly, Xia Xu expressed his great satisfaction with his new car.
Although the car is not high-tech, it can carry twelve spider-shaped predators. If it is equipped with some hot weapons, it can be comparable to a small army. In addition, the entire body is bulletproof, so sitting in it is extremely safe.
Next time, drive this thing out and see who dares to attack. When the time comes, a group of spider robots will be released, which will definitely scare people to the point of cardiac arrest.
"Well, maybe I can refer to the Batmobile or something in the future. Never mind, the Batmobile seems to be just so-so. If I have the chance, I'll find a mechanical master to build a Transformer for me..."
